"Brotherhood is not so wild a dream as those who profit by postponing it pretend."

Widely acclaimed as the greatest writer-director-producer of the Golden Age of Radio, Norman Corwin perfected his own unique recipe for success: begin with the human mind and knead gently; add a dash of poetry, wit and wonder; add a cup of raw passion and stir vigorously; garnish with sound effects, and marinate in a musical score. Season liberally with intelligence and digest slowly.

Corwin's works - musicals, fantasies, satires, and dramas - were presented on CBS in prestige series under his own direction, including The Columbia Workshop and Columbia Presents Corwin. His poetic language and progressive world-view combined to maximum effect in the masterpieces that launched a country in to war and eased it back in to peace.

As this patriotic American citizen, traveler of the world, and lover of words turns 100 years old, we take a look at eighteen of his works and ponder their lessons. A Program Guide written by Michael James Kacey is included, containing information and photographs of this radio legend.
